The Best Chocolate Cake

On 14/03/2017 By Denise Woodward
I turned 50 two weeks ago.  Yes, I said 50, and yes, it is weird to even say.  I did not want to make a big deal of it.  I wanted to slide into the next half-century quietly, and that is what we did, partly because I was so sick.  Nevertheless, Lenny surprised me with [...]

Sweet Harissa Peach Crostata

On 27/06/2016 By Denise Woodward
Pie!  Galette!  Crostata!  OH MY!  It has been a while since I baked something warm and sweet, so I got into the kitchen to do just that the past month.  What do pies, galettes, and crostata have in common?  They are all a form of pie just done a little differently.  Pies are found in [...]

Peach Blackberry Galette

On 16/07/2015 By Denise Woodward
Galettes are one of my favorite recipes to make;  both sweet and savory.  I am not much of a pie maker but give me a chance to make a sweet French dessert such as this recipe for Peach Blackberry Galette, and I am all over it. Two years ago I wrote and photographed a story for [...]

Horchata-Abuelita Swirl Ice Cream Tacos

On 12/08/2014 By Denise Woodward
Leave it to our friend, Jenni, to come up with a drool worthy dessert taco.  She has definitely taken Taco Tuesday to another level.  We met Jenni of Pastry Chef Online, at our first MIXED CON event, and she was an utter delight;  we instantly hit it off, and became more than blogging friends.  Jenni has over [...]

Vegan Hazelnut Strawberry Tarts

On 18/04/2014 By Denise Woodward
We have been trying to cut back on wheat, sugar, and dairy.  No particular reason, except that we feel better when we don’t have too much.  The hardest part of cutting back is when you want a little something sweet, and a piece of chocolate will not do.  These Vegan Hazelnut Strawberry Tarts fulfill that craving [...]
